Based on extensive field research on the India-Pakistan border, this text is about the corporate land grabs in Kashmir which explores how capital is at play in a conflict zone. Using the Kishanganga Hydroelectric Project, as a case study, this work focuses on the dispossession and displacement caused by such projects. It also discusses the meanings, relations, and connections of the indigeneous peasants with their natural resources.
